Solar Energy as an Alternative Energy Source

Photovoltaics (PV) are a renewable, clean, and universal power source. Photovoltaic cells, those black squares an array of which comprises a Solar Panel, are getting more efficient and gradually less expensive. The basic building block of PV technology is the solar cell. Solar Pv cells are made of semiconductor materials that directly convert sunlight into electricity. The size of the cells is decreasing as their efficiency rises, meaning that each cell becomes cheaper to produce and at once more productive. As far as the cost, the price of producing solar-generated energy per watt hour has decreased significantly in the last few years.

Solar powered electricity generation is certainly good for the environment, as this form of energy production gives off absolutely zero emissions into the atmosphere. Solar collection cells are becoming slowly but surely ever more practical for placing upon the rooftops of people’s homes and they are not a difficult system to use for heating one’s home, creating hot water, or producing electricity. For example, the use of photovoltaic cells for heating water works by having the water encased in the cells, where it is heated and then sent through your pipes.

Photovoltaic cells are becoming increasingly better at collecting sufficient radiation from the sun even on overcast or stormy days. These cells are connected into modules which can be tailored to supply voltage.

Typically, these modules are attached as panels onto an existing roof or are designed directly into the roof. Thin film technology has made it possible for solar cells to be integrated into roofing structures, such as roof shingles, tiles, building facades, or the glazing for skylights and atriums.

There is another Solar Power system available for use called the PV System. The PV System is connected to the nearest electrical grid and converts the system’s direct current (DC) electricity to alternating electricity (AC) which provides back up power in case of a power interruption on the grid. Being connected to the PV System can also keep your costs down while at once reducing pollution and taking pressure off the grid system. Some areas are even designing centralized solar collection arrays for small towns or suburban communities.

Some big-name corporations have made it clear that they are also getting into the act of using solar power (a further indication that solar generated energy is becoming an economically viable alternative energy source).

Nations such as Japan, Germany, the United States, and Switzerland have been furthering the cause of solar energy production by providing government subsidies or by giving tax breaks to companies and individuals who agree to utilize solar power for generating their heat or electrical power. As technology advances and a greater storage of solar collection materials is made available, more and more private investors will see the value of investing in this “green” technology and further its implementation much more.

Excerpt: Active solar technologies are employed to convert solar energy into usable light, heat, cause air-movement for ventilation or cooling, or store heat for future use. Active solar uses electrical or mechanical equipment, such as pumps and fans, to increase the usable heat in a system. Solar energy collection and utilization systems that do not use external energy, like a solar chimney, are classified as passive solar technologies.Solar hot water systems, except those based on the thermosiphon, use pumps or fans to circulate water, an anti-freeze mixture, or air through solar collectors, and are therefore classified under active solar technology. The solar collectors can be nonconcentrating or ‘flat-plate’, or of various concentrating designs. Most solar-thermal collectors have fixed mounting, but can have a higher performance if they track the path of the sun through the sky. Solar trackers, used to orient photovoltaic arrays or daylighting, may be driven by either passive or active technology.Solar technology comparison Active solar-thermal systems, via small pumps or fans, can have significantly higher solar savings fractions than passive solar technologies due to greatly-enhanced heat transfer and transport. Many of the most advanced technologies to actively use solar energy are photovoltaics, or solar energy systems. These are often remunerated through feed in tariffs, …

Solar Thermal: Solar Thermal Energy $28.83 Chapters: Solar Thermal Energy. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 149. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Solar thermal energy (STE) is a technology for harnessing solar energy for thermal energy (heat). Solar thermal collectors are defined by the USA Energy Information Administration as low-, medium-, or high-temperature collectors. Low temperature collectors are flat plates generally used to heat swimming pools. Medium-temperature collectors are also usually flat plates but are used for creating hot water for residential and commercial use. High temperature collectors concentrate sunlight using mirrors or lenses and are generally used for electric power production. STE is different from photovoltaics, which convert solar energy directly into electricity. While only 600 megawatts of solar thermal power is up and running worldwide in October 2009 according to Dr David Mills of Ausra, another 400 megawatts is under construction and there are 14,000 megawatts of the more serious concentrating solar thermal (CST) projects being developed. Of the 21,000,000 square feet (2,000,000 m) of solar thermal collectors produced in the United States in 2006, 16,000,000 square feet (1,500,000 m) were of the low-temperature variety. Low-temperature collectors are generally installed to heat swimming pools, although they can also be used for space heating. Collectors can use air or water as the medium to transfer the heat to their destination. MIT’s Solar House #1 built in 1939 used seasonal thermal storage for year round heating.In the United States, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems account for over 25 percent (4.75 EJ) of the energy used in commercial buildings and nearly half (10.1 EJ) of the energy used in residential buildings.

Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy $25.85 "It is now a quarter of a century since nuclear energy was introduced to the public. Its introduction was made in the most dramatic, but unfortunately in the most destructive way – through the use of a nuclear weapon. "Since that introduction enormous strides have been made in developing the peaceful applications of this great and versatile force. Because these strides have always been overshadowed by the focusing of public attention on the military side of the atom, the public has never fully understood or appreciated the gains and status of the peaceful atom. "This book is an attempt to correct, in some measure, this imbalance in public information and attitude. It is a compilation of remarks, and excerpts of remarks, that I have made in recent years in an effort to bring to the public the story of the remarkable benefits the peaceful atom has to offer man. This is a story that grows with the development and progress of the peaceful atom. It must be told so that we can learn to use the power of nuclear energy wisely and through this use help to build a world in which the military applications of the atom will never again be a threat to mankind." — Glenn T.

Alcohol Fuel: A Guide to Making and Using Ethanol as a Renewable Fuel $26.95 Dwindling petroleum supplies and growing environmental concerns are significantly impacting the cost of petro-fuel and its infrastructure. The search for alternative fuel sources has led to ethanol, a gasoline substitute that is already in the marketplace as Gasohol and E-85. But large-scale production of corn-based ethanol is controversial as it threatens the world’s food supply. There are alternatives, however: Brazil uses sugar cane, which is up to six times more productive in energy conversion.After the energy crisis of the 1970s, there was a lot of misinformation about the cost of individual ethanol production. In order to achieve energy independence from gasoline, ethanol lends itself to small-scale production, and especially to cooperative ventures in rural communities, often using “waste” feedstock.Alcohol Fuel is a practical, grassroots book that will give readers all the information they need, covering every aspect of making and using ethanol for fuel, including:Permitting and planningBudgeting and setupSourcing feedstocksFinding and building distillation equipmentStorage and safetyPractical applications for converting motor vehicles, farm equipment, and space-heating systemsThe practical, user-friendly information on basic equipment needs, fermentation recipes, and distillation designs will be of interest to readers looking for information, as well as to those ready to make the switch.Richard Freudenberger was research director of Mother Earth News, where he managed the Alcohol Fuel Program and developed solar and renewable solar and energy projects. He is publisher and technicaleditor of BackHome magazine and lives in Hendersonville, North Carolina.
